At fifty-nine, Jack Watson owns one of the most successful boutiques in Beverley Hills, has two grown-up children who are the light of his life, and his choice of Hollywood's most beautiful women. After a failed marriage in the distant past, Jack has become the perfect bachelor. And he loves it.
Amanda Robbins knew Jack only as her daughter's father-in law, an incurable playboy whom she dislikes intensely.But when she becomes a widow after twenty-six years of marriage, she finds herself on unfamiliar ground and is suprised to find herself befriended by, and attracted to, Jack Watson. Worse still, she likes him, to her own and her children's surprise.
Then, suddenly, Jack and Amanda are faced with an unexpected gift that neither thought possible. At a time in their lives when they least expect it, they not only feel young again, but are blissfully happy in spite of the obstacles and opposition around them . . .
Special Delivery is about what two people do when life gives them everything they wanted, twenty years after they expected to find it. In her bestselling novel, Danielle Steel makes us laugh and cry as she touches the heart with tenderness and accuracy.

Eu já li livros ruins, mas esse aqui está se esforçando.

A história da formação de uma família parece ser exatamente o tipo de chá-com-mel que o leitor pode estar precisando, porém a organização da história parece ter sido feita por uma criança ou um desses progamas de IA.

Jack é um ator fracassado, só que a autora o descreve como alguém que "atrai mulheres feito moscas". E essa é toda a descrição que se vai ter dele. Seu par romântico, Amanda, o odeia a primeira vista - para mostrar o quão ela é diferente das outras - mas em menos de cinco páginas já muda de ideia.

Somam-se erros de continuidade e incoerências e temos Uma Entrega Especial.

Francamente, poupem-se.
